Restaging Optimisation - Artistic practice for mediating the mediated smartphone user in AI camera optimisation

Vincent Thornhill

This contribution documents a series of artworks that explore how human and machine come together within ‘AI’ smartphone image optimisation. In smartphone camera systems, machine learning infrastructure creates a computational equivalent to various aspects of human experience, such as recognition, recollection, and anticipation. As humans interact with machine learning infrastructure through smartphone camera systems, they are mediated by these computational processes.
